GRAND RAPIDS, MI -- The Top 10 finalists put their 'best food forward' for the judges during GRAM on the Green Friday night in front of the Grand Rapids Art Museum.

A scratch in the lineup would be Bartertown Diner, who wasn't able to attend. Stepping in to fill that hole was the #11 contender, Stella's Lounge.

While judges ate their samples, the public was invited to make a donation to Kid's Food Basket and have their own sandwich stroll through all of the booths and make up their own minds.

Special thanks to Barfly Ventures and Stella's Lounge were announced as they substituted for Bartertown Diner, who had to pull out of the competition at the last moment. Stella's Lounge had come in #11 with their "The Omnivore" sandwich, which came in three versions: Vegan, Vegetarian, and Carnivore.

I interviewed the judges beforehand to get a glimpse into their decision process. Check out the gallery and the video.
